A little ZAPP behind the scenes action at one of our general meetings! We put the “project” in Zine Archive and Publishing Project. Yours truly snapped the pic. We’ve got a volunteer recruitment event coming up–maybe your face could be in the next pic!

IMPORTANT! The submission deadline for our Skymall zine has been extended to March 6th, 2015 at five pm. Get your work in this zine by sending it to zappseattle@gmail.com! Let’s don’t let Skymall fold without giving it some love first.

This catalogue offers a wealth of zines that advance “females battling ignorance.” Whether you’re searching for a zine comprised of essays on gay marriage or a memoir exploring female high school nostalgia, this catalogue provides commentary on a wide variety of zines seeking to ameliorate ignorance surrounding female oppression.

This is a great example of just how dynamic a zine’s form can be. “Clawin with our Jowls” is supra-bound with twine and duct tape, the cover is screen printed and made of found cardboard material, and it includes a clear square 7-inch vinyl titled, “Pia-No Reeves”. (get it? hardy har har) The meat of contains xeroxed and stapled rants, handwritten prose, a play, and lots of terrible advice

A how-to self-defense zine with illustrations featuring wild animals, including bunnies and bears! What an adorable way learn about protecting yourself when someone puts a gun to your head, or snatches your purse, or worse even, grabs your lapel (the nerve!).
